Motivations for the change are to reduce process for members who become unresponsive, and to discourage using hiatus for members who are experiencing temporary financial difficulty. Will discuss methods for dealing with the latter. Memberships would expire sooner. Members will be responsible for keeping the tresurer informed about thier contact info.

Read off any names from the binder for the past month. Write a check on every open application.

Anyone up for joining this week (ie have four checks by their name + have two sponsors) should introduce themselves then leave the area in search of gifts (traditionally beer and a lime) for the rest of the group. The rest of the meeting should consense on whether they may join.
